5.6 COOLANT

• The coolant expansion tank is located inside the front
compartment and is protected by a plastic cover
2
(chap.3.5).
• The level of coolant can be checked using the "MIN"
and "MAX" notches as reference. These are visible
3
through the chassis number sight glass (Fig.29).
• Check the coolant level in the tank when the engine
is cool, in order to avoid possible burnings.
4
• The coolant level is sufficient if it is included between
the "MIN" and "MAX" notches marked on the tank.
5 • If it is lower than the "MIN" notch, top up until you
reach the "MAX" notch.
• We advise you to use: Q8 TOP FLUID.
6
• If you are using undiluted fluid, dilute with the same
amount of water.
The cooling circuit is supplied with an electric fan,
actuated by a thermistor, which automatically
cools the fluid inside the radiator if its temperature
reaches excessive levels. The electric fan is
protected by a 7.5A fuse located in the glove
compartment (chap.3.6).
ENG
Before using the vehicle, check that the cooling
surface of the radiator, located behind the front
wheel, is not even partially clogged by leaves,
paper, mud, etc.

Fluid temperature indicator
Temperature of coolant is displayed by the temperature
indicator on the right hand side of the instrument
board.
When coolant temperature rises above the permissible
threshold, the indicator reaches the red zone of the scale
and the relative warning light comes on (chap.3.11).
In this case, stop the vehicle immediately. Allow the
engine to cool down and check:
• that there are no objects clogging the cooling
• that there are no leaks inside the circuit with
• that the fan's fuse is in working order (if not, replace it).
surface of the radiator located between the
headlights (remove them);
subsequent leak of fluid (see oil level, topping up);
For any trouble inside the cooling circuit, we
advise you to contact an Authorised MALAGUTI
Service Centre for an extensive check as soon
as possible, even if the cause of the trouble has
already been removed.
